Hi everyone! I have some new mat files made from mapped pictures that I'd like to share. I also have 2 questions: 1. Tell me if I'm right: Create a new folder in the Mats directory and add the jpgs to it. Recreate the mats, saving them to the before mentioned folder then WinZip it all, mat files and pictures, and it's ready to go. Is that the way to do it? 2. What do I tell people concerning how to install the new files in the enclosed readme? Thanks for your help! Linda

Linda, yes, that's a good way. The files has not to be installed, just to put somewhere in the mats folder. If your subfolder (zip) -lets say is called "lindamats", the user has just to put the entire "lindamats" folder in the main "materials" folder. Don't forget to create and upload a 200x200 thumbnail showing the mats. Guitta
